Happy Hearts Early Learning Centres are family-owned early education providers in Auckland. After using other solutions to run the service, Happy Hearts switched to Discover in 2020. The services care for 202 children in 2 locations, Riverhead and Red Beach, providing quality childcare in the communities as purpose-built centres that teach infants, toddlers and preschoolers.
Based on the success Happy Hearts was enjoying, the centre required a new student management system (SMS) that would support its wide-ranging needs. The administration wanted an SMS that worked intuitively and allowed seamless integration between reports, enrolments, waitlists and enquiries.
Due to the more paper-based system the centre was using, they were losing many hours per week on administration that could have been automated. Managing Director, John Cook, needed robust and efficient software to help get everything done as quickly, accurately and efficiently as possible. After seeing what Discover could do for them, John viewed the migration as an easy choice when viewed through the lens of effective time management.
